eccentric Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I constantly battle a feeling of lonliness in my heart. I am my mother's only daughter (she has 4 sons, 3 older than myself). My father is not around and I don't have any close relatives. I yearn a close relationship with my mother; i've tried buying her expensive gifts, paying most of the bills and taking her to dinner and the movies. But it seems that she feels very mildly toward me and I am tired of trying to "buy" her love. My fiance lives in MN and I will be moving there soon. As i have said, I am tired trying to bond with her. Should I just move away and accept that we will never share the bond I desire and just emotionally detach myself from her while maintaining moderate contact? Or should I extending myself to her son more even though she is not making much of an effort?
